    I've been to prison TWICE. They gave me a paying job in the woodshop. I used that to buy commissary. Imagine that, going to prison and get a paying job, just like on the outside. I'll never forget my experiences there. Deep down inside, we're all the same.

    If prison reform is ever going to happen the government isn't going to do a thing to help. This is gonna have to be the answer to prison reform.

      They said that the guards were helping the inmates. Besides, they’ll have better results if it’s a program that they’ve come up with themselves, and it’s cool that the prison is allowing them to do it. There are a lot of prisons that wouldn’t…

      Any more details on why the prisn? It's not giving them their meds?

      @@selfesteem3447 once I emailed the governors office and the prison and left messages with the news stations and everything I could think of letting them know that I know that it was illegal they started giving them their meds again. If they have the funding which they are funded they should never have this sort of problem. It’s just that most people do not stand up for what is right. We need more people to speak on these things and come together as one instead of being afraid of the back lash

    I think this is a great thing. I believe prison is meant to punish but also to rehabilitate. The greatest thing for people anywhere is to get to know the Lord if they don't. That will improve their lives immediately. These men have a goal to do good and that's a wonderful thing.

    PRISON ISN'T THE ANSWER.
    EDUCATION, REABILATATION HELP , LOVE AND PEACE AND FORGIVENESS IS THE ANSWER.
    I HONESTLY PRAY THAT THIS PROGRAM IS A VERY GOOD PROGRAM FOR THESE MEN THAT ARE IN CARCERATED.

    Even in prison and inmate remembers that Good does not want him to be there but does want him to turn his life around for a better purpose than prison. Oh yeah.

    The USA needs more programs like this in all jails and prisons across all 50 states. If you see prisons in European countries compared to ours its like two separate worlds. And those prisons have an extremely low reoffender rate!
